SUPPORT THE PEOPLE OF UGANDA
LETI Foundation for Africa- Uganda
Leo Primary School is constantly in need of supplies, such as desks, doors, windows, plaster for new walls and beds for the dormitory.
The St. Oliva Medical Center serves students of Leo Primary School as well as people seeking healthcare in the community of Isingiro District.
Isingiro Business Community SACCO is a saving, credit company that is aimed at training parents, staff and community members in financial discipline. All staff open accounts in SACCO and are paid by deposits on their accounts. Parents are encouraged to open accounts, save their money, take credit, and pay the tuition of their children in the SACCO. The positive impacts on the staff and community are amazing.
A message from the President of Leti Foundation for Africa-Uganda:
Abundant blessings and gratitude to all our donors and prayer warriors. The impact of Leti Foundation for Africa-Uganda in Isingiro, Uganda is phenomenal. Because of the good discipline of the students of Leo Primary School and their excellent performance, the number of students is overwhelmingly way above what the structures on the ground can hold! The school has more than five hundred (500) students! Many parents are insisting on bringing more but we turn them back! Thanks to the wonderful administration, staff and parents. At the moment DORMITORIES are urgently needed: One for boys and one for girls. The dormitories will be located opposite to each other behind the Multipurpose Building forming a quadrangle with the completed Kitchen and Dining at the back. Each one of the Dormitories will cost €650,000 to completion.
The women and youth have also urgently requested for a Center with spacious halls, stores and bedrooms for resource people who come to visit. The Women and Youth Center is estimated to cost €160,000 to completion. Please, come to our aid.
Choicest Blessing to all our friends, our donors and our prayer warriors,
Rev. Fr. Leo Tinkatumire, PhD
President, Leti Foundation for Africa-Uganda
Leo Primary School sends abundant appreciation to all those donating toward the construction of the Girls’ Dormitory at Leo Primary School. Rev. Fr. Leo Tinkatumire, PhD (president of Leti Foundation for Africa-Uganda), Ms. Jolly Niwaha (school supervisor), the headteacher, the staff and the students thank you all so much for your love and generosity!
At present, the students use classrooms for dormitories and even they are over congested. Your generosity will avail comfortable and safe accommodation to the young, fragile and vulnerable girl students.
